 I guess background screening could be improved, or possibly even performed.


Could it be that operating in the shadows (one presumes that the Canadian
agency is greatly overshadowed by its higher-profile US counterpart - or
that Canada is simply not taken seriously enough as a player) has made them
somewhat complacent?

One thing after another for red-faced spymasters
In past few months, Canada's espionage agencies have been
embarrassed by several security lapses.
Canada's espionage agencies enjoy operating deep in the
shadows. No press, for spies, is usually good press. By
that measure, the past few months have not been the best
of times for this nation's spymasters. A string of
embarrassing revelations have them, once again, looking
for cover. In September, the Canadian Security Intelligence
Service and its sister organization, the Communications
Security Establishment, were rocked by news that one of
their spooks had posted the names, even pictures on the
World Wide Web, of Canadian fighter pilots who served
in the Balkans war.
